162. See the meeting
The rebuilding of the mountain town continues, and Danica looks back on the events of the past two months, which are nothing short of dramatic. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Soon, the city lord girl of the mountain city ushered in such a day.
The loyal old butler was a little sad in his heart, but he still showed a kind smile on his face.
"Miss Danica, everything is ready, and the carriage that you bought from the neighboring town with a small amount of money is waiting for you outside. ”
Danica muttered as she walked over, "I wish this kind of thing could be canceled." ”
Seeing her standing in the doorway, Dawn sighed.
"Miss Danica, I'm so sorry I can't accompany you to the Imperial City. ”
"It's okay, I'm not a kid anymore, and I don't want to talk about it, I know those people must want to see how depressed I am. Dwayne, you see I'm okay with this dress, right?"
"Miss Danica, the red dress left by your mother still remembers that unforgettable memory as always. ”
"That's fine, the most they can do is laugh at what I'm wearing, and if it's a dress, they'll be going to pursue it endlessly. ”
Dawn thought for a moment, then looked worried.
"Miss Danica, you can't hide anything about the rebuilding of the mountain town. ”
"Everyone knows this, you don't need to worry so much, there are so many things going on here, and now there are dragon slayer knights, those guys must be too timid to come. ”
"Although the mountain city is guarded by me and Vance, and although Young Master Lance is going to the imperial city with you, I always feel uneasy. ”
Danica, don't look over, she doesn't know what Dawn thinks, this time she will definitely be ridiculed by a series of people going to the Imperial City. The worst result is that the nobles can concentrate on one thing and make the city of Ridimpa seriously unbearable.
Last month, shortly after the first dragon attack, no one had been sent from the palace, and when they learned of the predicament, they sent a letter a week before the meeting, ordering Danica to arrive at the palace on time.
However, that time, Danica refused directly on the grounds that she couldn't leave.
After that, Danica did not receive any more letters from the palace, and she felt a little strange in her heart, but in the days that followed, because of many other things, she forgot this little doubt.
However, time always passed quickly, and two days earlier, on the day she received the letter from Neil Charlie, Danica had received a reminder from the palace, and she had almost forgotten about the monthly meeting.
Then, today, she was going to go to the Imperial City.
Since it takes at least four days to get to the palace, prepare well in advance and leave in a carriage in advance.
"It's going to happen once a month!"
After a few simple preparations, Danica set off with Lance.
"Is it really okay to have just the two of us this time?" Lance felt a little uneasy in his heart.
"Are you still a dragon slayer knight?" Danica's eyes widened.
"I'm not official yet, and the Sword of Thunder is not in my hands, I think the nobles of the Imperial City must know about me, and most importantly, you know, I am not from the Kingdom of Jiainlut. ”
"Because you're from Caranslan, having that is enough for them to take seriously, so there's no need to worry. You're really like Dawn, who has changed from a nagging butler to a butler with worries on his face. ”
"I'm not sure if the royal family of Garansland knows that my true identity is actually from the Karanslan Empire, and if they spread the news of the Sword of Thunder and the Dragonslayer Knight to Karanslan about me, because I came to Garansland from the border of Karanslan in the first place, the nobles of Garinrut will definitely think of this. ”
"It's useless to think so much now, could it be that they suddenly quieted down just to prepare a big gift for me?"
Lance wanted to nod, but he could only nod in his heart, more than twenty years ago, on this continent, the previous user of the Sword of Light, that is, Danica's father, his name was known to more than half of the entire Vagoulite continent.
It is almost as prestigious as the status of the Temple of the Four Directions.
In just a few years, he has been constantly crusading against dragons everywhere, killing more than ten figures.
At that time, he was a legendary figure, the guardian of peace on the continent of Vogulet.
His affairs were always discussed in the afternoon, and each of his crusades against dragons was handed down by the bards as songs.
He was one of the best dragon slayers in hundreds of years, even winning against three dragons with a sword of light, and he was a great dragon slayer who saved countless people who nearly perished at the dragon's side.
"You're right, thinking that these things don't actually help in any way. Half an hour later, Lance suddenly said this.
Lance looked at Danica's side face, and suddenly sighed in his heart.
Some people are always under the expectations of others, running for others, and doing a lot of things that are difficult for ordinary people to accomplish, behind this, how much pressure are these people under, and the greater the expectations of others, the greater the pressure.
Lance looked down at his hands, from the moment he picked up the Sword of Thunder, what he could do, what he really had to do, the confusion in his heart, and how far his limit could go.
All this is still an unknown question, and one day, he will find the real answer.
Those who don't want to face, don't want to accept, don't want to witness, he will take them all into his arms one by one.
Like, the red-haired girl in front of me.
The feeling in my heart is a longing.
Therefore, he did not complain, did not ask for compensation, and willingly continued to stay here and stay by her side.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
"Huh, you're talking about me?"
"I was just telling you some precautions, didn't you hear it? Where is your mind drifting?"
The voice came to his ears, and Lance smiled apologetically.
"You're thinking too much, I'm just being drawn to the scenery outside. ”
"What's the view, what's there to see out there?"
A few days later, the carriage arrived in the Imperial City of Serbro.
In the wide streets of the Imperial City, you can see the carriages of the nobles heading in the direction of the Imperial Palace, and one of these carriages is not decorated on the outside, and the destination of this carriage is also the Imperial Palace.
"We're here, Danica, get up!"
In the carriage, Danica fell asleep against the wall, and Lance woke up before entering the Imperial City, and seeing that his destination was approaching, he did not continue to sleep to pass the time.
"So fast?"
Danica rubbed her eyes, and then realized that the carriage had stopped, and she suddenly opened the curtain to see the sunlight pouring in from outside, and suddenly her mind was completely clear.
"I'd like to be able to sleep a little longer. ”
Muttering, Danica turned around and took a few steps forward, then jumped out of the carriage, followed by Lance.
After paying the money, the coachman quickly drove away in the carriage.
Danica came to the guards and said her name, and the guards at the gate of the palace looked at the nobles who came to the palace every month, among them, Danica was an exception, this was the lord of the noble city who was afraid of the nobility in an ordinary carriage, and became a joke in the palace a long time ago. For her face, it is as representative as the family crest.
The palace gates opened, and Danica walked in with Lance.
Upon entering, Danica saw rows and rows of carriages.
"There are still as many carriages here as ever."
"I have a question, Danica, the carriage is gone, are we going to walk over it?"
"Is this still a question? It's still early, you won't feel tired after walking a little, right? If you don't want to leave, you can stay outside, anyway, the meeting is my own business, I'll call you when I come out." ”
"But you're alone, if Dawn and Vance knew I let you go alone, they'd kill me. Lance made a wry smile, and then said, "I'll go with you, I won't go in the palace, I'll wait for you at the door." ”
"It's okay, I'll start by saying that it takes at least an hour to walk from here to there, don't complain. ”
"How is it possible, I have accepted you anyway...... It was the brutal training of that master. ”
Danica's face changed for a moment, revealing hesitation.
"Lance, you may think it's hypocritical, you still have a pimple in your heart after accepting this money. First of all, I am very grateful to him for rebuilding the mountain city, but, as a relative, I will not forgive him so easily, as for this money, I just owe it now, owed, and one day I will pay it back, just understand it this way. ”
"I think everybody has their own way of being nice. Lance smiled lightly, and then changed his serious face: "This time, you really have to be careful. ”
"Ann, la, a!"
An hour later, the two separated, and after Danica entered, Lance stood outside and waited.
During this period, Lance also met the nobles of Gainlut, and they looked at him, and there was no strange color on his face, probably thinking that he was the butler of some nobleman.
It didn't take long for the palace door to close slowly, and it seemed that all the nobles had arrived, and Lance stood outside alone blowing the wind, thinking to himself that Danica didn't know what to do now.
Lance stood and looked at the surrounding scenery, looking back at the nearby guards, who had a cold face, Lance wanted to say something but held back, they looked unexpectedly dutiful.
Back in reality, what bothers Lance is, how should he pass the time while standing here?
"I hope this meeting will end soon. ”
When Lance was talking to himself, suddenly, a small white shadow flashed in the direction of his head, Lance felt something fall on his head, and the next second, this feeling disappeared, and then a white cat appeared on the ground looking back at him.
"Meow~"
